About meat of mammals, frozen
cpc code 2113 covers the production and trade of frozen meat from mammals. This industry is a crucial component of the global food supply chain, providing a reliable and accessible source of protein for consumers worldwide. Frozen meat production plays a significant role in the broader agricultural and food processing sectors, contributing to economic growth and employment in many countries.
Production process
The production of frozen meat from mammals typically involves several key steps. First, the animals are slaughtered and their carcasses are processed to remove inedible parts. The meat is then cut into smaller pieces, trimmed, and sorted according to quality and type. Next, the meat is rapidly frozen, often using cryogenic or blast freezing techniques, to preserve its freshness and nutritional value. Finally, the frozen meat is packaged and stored in specialized cold storage facilities before being distributed to wholesalers, retailers, and other 2114 Meat of mammals, fresh or chilled or 2115 Meat of poultry, fresh, chilled or frozen consumers.
